No pictures in my first post in this thread, but I can list tank equipment.

Tanks:
-Display: 72 x 30 x 30 w/ two corner overflows 3/4" acrylic
-Sump: 48 x 24 x 24 w/ middle chamber as fuge 1/2" acrylic

Skimmer: Precicion Marine XL2 run on a Reeflo Snapper, external

Reactors:
-Phosban: 1 Precision Marine Phosban reactor, possibly will add another if phosphate problems ever arise
-Calcium/Kalkwasser: None. I feel I should add and am looking into reactors. Which one do you guys recommend?
-Nitrate Reactor: Can't remember the brand name right now. Being fed by a Mini-Jet. Only Dosing 5ml Vodka a week, what is the recommended dosage for a 285g?
Lighting:
-Display: Solaris I4 Series LED's
-Fuge: Current Nova Extreme 4 x 24w T5

Pumps:
-Returns: 2x Reeflo Snapper on WavySea's
-Protein Skimmer: Reeflo Snapper
-Display Circulation: 2x Koralia 4

Wishlist:
Calcium or Kalkwasser Reactor
More circulation for display. Even though there are really no dead spots, i still feel its insufficient.

Thanks For Reading Everyone!

Pictures Will Come Soon

FTS to start. This is only a 4 month old build, so not much coraline, but it's sure growing!
